Trump was never very ideologically inclined, so this does not seem unbelievable. He mostly acts out of self-interest and to stroke his ego (a caricature, but one which doubles as a fairly solid heuristic).
As other commenters have pointed out, the interest rates are also historically low.

During his campaign he flipped, flopped, flipped again then flopped again all within a few weeks. Some of the reversals were literally on consecutive days, it just depended who he was talking to at the time.
